Wow, I agree with Mr. Darville saying that this smells like a pencil, eraser and all! I definitely get that vibe but it isn't unappealing say like such fragrances as Gucci Pour Homme I that literally smells like pencil shavings and lead! No, Guess Man is actually quite a nice green/woody fragrance. I'm not sure if I'd say it's sweet but it does have this very light sweet feel to it and the woodyness really balances it out! This is perfect for anyone who is looking for a fragrance that isn't loud but rather bold, unique, and on a tight budget! It's sillage is subtle, which makes it perfect for class or the office, but it's longevity is very good (6+ hours) and it's perfect for any occasion/setting so I highly recommend trying this one out! I usually try not to overspray on any fragrance but with this one, I tend to since it's such a great scent and I really can't imagine anyone thinking this is cloying or offensive, and so far, the results are positive!
